Timeshift: Time shift-The Dark Horse

I like these kinds of games. Games that add a fantasy element to shooting are games that I enjoy. Portal is a great example of this, and the puzzles added for even better, but Portal isn't what this review is about. Timeshift is a shooter that uses time changing elements. You can slow, stop, and rewind time, but mostly, you will only need to slow time. The shooting is good, not CoD 4 or Halo, but it gets the job done. The different guns are cool, and they are futuristic, and fun to use. But there is a problem. The difficulty curve is pretty straight. Your health regenrates every 20 seconds, and you can slow time so you don't lose too much health. stopping and slowing and rewinding time gives more of an advantage to you, so you can go and pwn everyone. After 5 minutes, I just walked on the roads, killing whatever I saw, in a very crowded level, and I never lost more than 1/2. Overall, I like this game. It's fun, and even though it's easy, it never gets repetitive, and there are some situations where you go "what the hell do I do now?" This is a dark horse, and wasn't really marketed, or reviewed, but it still does well. I give it a 3.5 for fun, but easy.
